Bruno Bucciarati: Veritas
At first, I wanted to represent Bruno with a more motherly mythological figure, like Demeter, but after some deliberation, I decided that Veritas, the goddess of truth would suit him a lot better. Not only because Bruno is skilled at detecting liars, but also because of the aesthetic that represents the goddess of truth. Veritas is most often described wearing white fabrics and if that doesn't scream Bruno Bucciarati I don't know what does. Despite the visual appearance, I see Bruno as a very truthful individual who wants to see wrongdoers punished and he'll happily go through with doing it himself.
Pannacotta Fugo: Ares
Representing Fugo as Aries is quite predictable, but it's also extremely fitting. I don't want to undermine Fugo's intelligence and I intended to represent him as a God of knowledge, but Ares seems to be more in line with Purple Haze. I see Fugo as an individual who thinks that he has to act out in violence out of necessity instead of the thrill of war or mindless bloodshed, though his particular brand of combat is very gruesome, he doesn't like it in the slightest. He finds his existence is like a burden to everyone and as a result, he often falls into long-lasting cycles of dejection where his negative thoughts often torment him.
Narancia Ghirga: Notus
Narancia's stand made me want to represent him with a deity closely related to the sky, so I chose Notus, the God of the southern wind. Their personalities also align quite well, both of them being short-tempered and unhinged. Narancia's outbursts can be attributed to sudden changes in weather, fog, mist and impressive storms.
Guido Mista: Artemis
Since I couldn't find an appropriate deity according to his personality, I decided that Artemis, the goddess of hunting and archery would represent his stand the best. Mista's quite childish personality and very close friendship with Narancia can also be attributed to Artemis being the protector of children.
Leone Abbacchio: Dionysus
Leone was one of the easier characters to find a fitting god for. I chose Dionysus for his fondness for wine, which I think would be suitable as we see Leone drinking heavily before joining Passione. I also find that Dionysus' tendency to avoid most physical altercations by driving his opponents insane vaguely reminds me of Moody Blues ability during his fight with Illuso.
Giorno Giovanna: Demeter
I see Giorno as a very headstrong and mature person that why I chose Demeter, the elder goddess of plants and the harvest. Giorno likes to be in control of any given situation and keeping the people close to him close and protected which correlates to Demeter's grief over her daughter's disappearance. He's often the voice of reason in the group since he wants to make sure everyone's okay and safe. Giorno's stand is also very representative of Demeter's love for nature.
Trish Una: Horae
Trish is the character that goes through the most drastic change during the events of Vento Aureo so choosing a deity to represent her was difficult, I think that Horae, the goddess of seasons would be a good representation. Her mistrust in the people who were protecting her slowly grew into a blooming friendship. This also sparked her determination to defeat Diavolo, which can be attributed to Horae's ties to order and justice as they guard the gates to Olympus.
